The beautiful bride-to-be had requested no crazy shower games, so I kept it simple with one fun game that I was sure nobody had ever played at a shower before. It didn’t take long to play, which left lots of time for mingling, eating, and opening gifts! This bride-to-be chair banner was created the same […]
Teal & Sparkle Bridal Shower Instagram Banner
I wanted to make a focal point at the shower that incorporated photos of the couple. This instagram photo banner ended up being the perfect decoration that tied in all of the colors and showcased the Bride-to-be’s beautiful engagement photos. I printed all of the photos 4×6, and uploaded photos of letters as jpegs to […]
Teal & Sparkle Bridal Shower
A few weeks ago I threw a dear friend a Bridal Shower. I had sent her many theme ideas, and jokingly added ‘Sparkly Teal’, her favorite color, to the list. It shouldn’t have been a surprise when that’s the one she choose. We did a morning brunch complete with a cereal bar and mimosa bar. […]

{Wedding Details} Ceremony
When we originally booked the Day Block for our reception site, we planned on having the ceremony there as well. In the end we decided we preferred to get married in a church, and were able to rent Pilgrim Lutheran Church for the day. It was the perfect intimate setting and I am so glad we made […]
{Wedding Details} Wedding Party
One of the biggest ‘challenges’ of planning was my desire for color, while my husband would wanted everything to be classic (as in no polka dots). My favorite compromise was the bridal party. I choose simple navy bridesmaid dresses from Target (Target sells bridesmaid dresses now!) and let them pick their own style as long […]
